Due to unforeseen circumstances we have postponed our launch and we will no longer be partnering with Krumbs cafe, United Response. YRJFP do however have lots of pop up events in the pipeline (including in the Town Centre and Accomb) as well as potential new premises in the near future. We are still collecting food donations from the public and our suppliers, but ask that none of these are forwarded to Krumbs cafe. We apologise for the inconvenience this may have caused and thank you for your continuous support.
